ATHLETIC DEVELOPMENT FOR YOUNG BASKETBALL PLAYERS
We Build The Engine Behind Your Game
Strength & Conditioning Programs To Help Young Athletes Increase Their Speed, Agility, Explosive Power and Strength
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to give every young basketball player an opportunity to reach their full potential and chase their dreams.
With more than 30 years experience training elite basketball players across:
Representative basketball
State-level basketball
National leagues
International competition
One problem has appeared again and again:
Talented players whose bodies didn't have the speed, agility, explosive power or strength to take them to the next level.
The Basketball Advantage was created to close that gap.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY 'HAVING AN ENGINE'
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY 'HAVING AN ENGINE'
A basketball player’s engine is the body underneath their basketball talent.
It determines how quickly they accelerate.
How explosively they jump.
How sharply they change direction.
How well they absorb contact.
How confidently they control their body.
And whether they can continue performing when everyone else begins to slow down.
A talented player may know exactly what they want to do on the court.
But if their body cannot execute it with speed, strength and control, their talent remains restricted.
We build the physical qualities that allow players to use those skills at a much higher level.
Introducing The
Basketball Advantage Program:
When you become a 'Basketball Advantage' Athlete you get an elite strength, conditioning, plyometrics program to follow each week to start building your speed, agility, power and strength.
The program is online and visible through the app. It can be done at home, at the court or in the gym. No equipment is needed.
Our program runs in 12 week blocks with programmed sessions to complete each week and accountability to keep you winning!
A 12 week block would look like:
Week #1:
Testing and looking at where you currently are at
Weeks #2-5:
Training Sessions To Improve Speed, Strength, Explosiveness and Agility
Week #6:
Re- Test and record results
Weeks #7-11:
Training Sessions To Improve Speed, Strength, Explosiveness and Agility
Week #12:
Re-test and record results
At the end of a 12 week block we assess the goals and if we will continue working together or not.
On average our athletes stay with us for several years as they progress through the levels of improvement.
The investment is simple $55 (inc gst) per week, direct debited weekly.
How It Works:
1. You use the form below to sign up and become a 'Basketball Advantage' Athlete.
2. You will complete an intake form so that we have the base metrics to work from and create the first 6 week program.
3. Within 24hrs Athletes will have access to the training APP (pictured on the right) which will show their training session, the number of sets, reps, rest period and video's to ensure the movement is being done correctly.
* Please note that all movements can be done without a gym membership and no one to begin with are using weights, we want fast twitch muscle fibres, not slow twitch.
The app allows for communication back and forth with us and ensures we can monitor and keep the athlete accountable.
4. Athletes will receive their training journal which allows them to record their results, set goals and reflect on their weekly sessions and games.
5. Athletes will be invited to any special days or camps that are put on as extra sessions.
6. Athletes are personally monitored, communicated with and mentored across all areas of basketball and becoming an elite athlete
It's like having your own elite basketball mentor & strength and conditioning coach for only $55 a week.
It's our mission to do EVERYTHING possible to help you reach your goals!
Frequently Asked Questions
Just to help you out, here are some questions we are sometimes asked.
How much does the program cost?
The program is $55 per week, including GST, paid by weekly direct debit.
How long is the program?
We train in focused 12-week development blocks. Players are tested in Week 1, reassessed in Week 6 and tested again in Week 12 so improvement can be clearly measured.
Can we cancel?
The program runs as an initial 12-week block. After that, you can choose whether your athlete continues into their next stage of development. After the initial 12 week block, a two week notice is required to finish up.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes. If your athlete decides within their first two weeks that the program isn’t right for them, we’ll refund your payments. No questions asked.
What is included in the app?
Your athlete’s personalised training program, exercise videos, scheduled workouts, progress tracking and direct communication with their coach are all available inside the app.
Is the app safe?
100% - This is only for our athletes and it is not available to outside users or used like social media platforms. No one can direct message anyone other than the coach and all privacy policies are strictly followed.
Is this a generic online program?
No. Every athlete begins with testing so we can understand their current ability, development needs and goals. Their program is then designed around the individual player.
How often will they train?
Athletes complete three to four focused sessions each week, with each session taking approximately 30 minutes.
Do they need access to a gym?
No full gym membership is required. We’ll explain exactly what equipment your athlete needs before they begin. At most it is a skipping rope. Everything else you can find around you.
How do we know they are improving?
We measure and record their results at the beginning, Week 6 and Week 12. This allows the athlete and parent to see measurable changes in the areas we are developing.
What qualifications do you have?
As the head coach I have a BA Physical Education from Sydney Uni, Cert4 trainer in strength & conditioning, L2 association coach certificate with Basketball Australia, Current Working With Children Number, 30+ years experience with elite level athletes, current BNSW Pathways program coach and hundreds of results from athletes who have reached their goals.
What happens after we join?
We’ll contact you within 24 hours, organise your athlete’s initial testing and assessment, set up their training app and explain exactly how the program works.
What if my child has an injury?
Tell us before they begin. We’ll take their injury history and current physical condition into account in programming their sessions. Injuries occur from lack of strength, so strengthing that area is the key to a strong body.
What is my role as a parent?
To be their cheerleader, some days they won't feel like it, other days it will feel great, don't be hard on them, we will keep them accountable and you be their friend. Every athlete and parent involvement is different. We know you want the very best for them and we will help you become that also.
